Tuggeranong, Woden and Weston have free BBQ's for us all to use in parklands, reserves and other areas across the district. It is a great way to get the kids (and ourselves!) out of the house to kick a ball, play some cricket or ride bikes before filling up with a sausage sizzle on a free BBQ.

This list was compiled with the help of the ACT Territory and Municipal Services website. They have a list of BBQ's in operation and update their website with a Weekly BBQ Report . It is a handy report to check that your BBQ is operating before you go - especially if you are organising a big BBQ celebration.
